Chapter 95. Who is this Hero?

– Did the Imperial Princess come in person to say this?

– Details in the letter.

I opened the letter she brought and began to read.

50% of the letter was congratulations on my appointment to the throne, and the remaining 45% consisted of boasting about how good the Holy Empire of the central continent is.

And the main point of the letter consisted of only 5%. The content was quite insignificant.

– A marriage of convenience?

– That's right, Your Imperial Majesty.

The imperial princess in front of me wanted to become a mistress. While the empress's place is empty, she is aiming for a mistress, which means that she has plans to become an empress in the future.

– New this year, I saw winter for the third time in my life

I'm only 3 years old!

– Forgive me for my insolence, but I believe that age is not important. Isn't the relationship and understanding the most important? Wouldn't a blood oath make the alliance between the northern and central continents even stronger? Plus, in the Holy Empire, I got a perfect education. You will be pleased not only with my appearance, but also with my inner component.

The language of the imperial princess was well suspended. Leaning on the armrests of the throne, I glared at her.

-> Race: Human

-> Level: 288

-> Specialization: Princess (Rank → Attention t)

-> Skills: Charisma (S), Elegance (A), Eternal Youth (A), Politics (A), Intelligence (A) …

-> State: Expectation, Craving, Excitement, Anxiety

The level of the emperor's daughter was like that of ordinary aristocrats, but there were unusually many A-rank skills. She was not a typical princess humbly awaiting a prince on a white horse, but developed herself in various directions.

To become the ruler of an empire.

An insidious woman.

She studied politics and attended brides-to-be classes to get A-ranks. Isn't she a genius? She was no worse than the Hero's companions.

– I'll let you stay here.

– Ah! Then…

– Imperial princess. Prove the rest yourself and achieve everything yourself. I am still too young. Now is not the time to worry about the heirs.

Tired of waiting.

– The invasion of the Demon Lord threatens not only the central continent, but also to all of humanity. And my empire will not ignore this problem, but will help to cope with it. Imperial princess, if you have nothing more to say, go. You will be escorted to your chambers.

– Okay, Your Imperial Majesty.

The Imperial Princess, deliberately shaking her hips as much as possible, departed.

But neither my loyal servants nor the knights even blinked an eye. They were all married.

Such a veteran of the fantasy world as I have noticed long ago that married men were less likely to think about coups d"etat, betrayal and conspiracies.

And there are several reasons fora this…

Those who have a family will not commit rash acts. They also don't confuse primal sex drive with real love.

– Next.

– Yes, Your Imperial Majesty. The number of refugees from other continents is increasing. Due to the war, the population has decreased, so we are thinking of accepting them.

This was not the case in my 1st playthrough. But in playthrough 8, things were different. Due to the fact that the Hero did nothing, the continents were teeming with monsters and criminals. As a result, apart from the northern continent, in which I put things in order, the other four were chaotic.

Human trafficking, huge taxes, slave hunting, corruption…

The reasons were different.

– Accept refugees. After all, the fate of other continents has already been decided. Based on the experience from the 1st playthrough, some incidents could threaten the entire continent if the Hero does not solve the problem. For example, the Five Calamities must be eliminated by the Hero.

Defeat a secret order trying to unseal a monster. Defeat the monster before it gets strong. Find the treasure that weakens the monster.

Fate provides enough time and methods to overcome the Five Calamities.

These monsters hide on different continents of Fantasy, humbly awaiting their time.

However, I do not know what will happen if you do not deal with them.

Because the Honorable High Dragon of Oblivion, Noebius, died a natural death, and the rest of the Five Calamities were exterminated by me before I could do anything.

But you can assume…

– Your Imperial Majesty, have you just said that their fate is a foregone conclusion?

– Yes, that's right.

All continents except the northern one will fall. They will either be burned, frozen, or flooded. To each his own.

After that, after discussing a few more matters, I ended the meeting.

I headed to the Emperor's private quarters.

– So the Demon Lord has already begun to act…

Is it because of the Hero who is obsessed with the elf princess Sylvia?

This is almost certainly the case.

And also because the number of demons and their followers has grown dramatically in the fantasy world. The hero must destroy them, but while he was inactive, their number grew exponentially.

The ecosystem is collapsing…

Although, I wasn't really worried about it.

For now 3 years old, but the body was like a five year old. Due to my small stature, I felt some discomfort, but despite this, I was in no way inferior to adults, and showed excellent abilities in politics and was active.

And pizza already ready.

My body has completely recovered to the state it was on Earth. Although the appearance has changed slightly due to the genes of a beautiful nurse who came from Fantasy.

There is nothing left until I defeat the Demon Lord.

Using the teachings of Master Mollan, I could already take the form of an adult. But I was in no hurry.

The reason for this was…

-> Type: Skill

-> Name: Giftedness

-> Rank: MAX (5%)

-> Z: Overcoming the limit gets easier

-> SSS: Significant increase in dexterity

-> S: Significant increase in skill mastery

-> A: Significant increase in points experience

-> B: Increases slightly agility

-> C: Slightly increases success rate

-> D: Slightly increases skill level

-> E: Slightly increased experience points

-> F: Outstanding from birth

This skill.

As Ms. Trainee told me, it gets harder and harder to break through with each new transcendental skill.

So I prepared hard.

-> Race: Chaos Man

-> Level: 304

-> Specialization : Hero (Exp 500%)

-> Skills: Giftedness (MAX), Immortality (MAX), Survival (MAX), Conquest (MAX), Greatness (MAX), Courage ( MAX), Domination (MAX), Leadership (MAX), Politics (SSS), Endurance (SSS), Reason (SSS), Leadership (SSS), Nobility (SSS), Patronage (SSS), Diplomacy (SSS), Trade ( SSS), Judgment (SSS), Intelligence (SSS),Culture (SSS), Performance (SSS), Willpower (SS), Charm (SS), Mind (SS), Physical Strength (SS), Fortitude (SS), Hearing (SS), Cruelty (SS), Bloodline (SS) ), Spirit (SS), Vitality (SS), Hunt (SS), Grab (SS), Compulsion (SS), Threat (SS), Provocation (SS), Feat of War (SS), Rest (SS), Wisdom (SS), Recklessness (SS), Intuition (SS), Prudence (SS), Fencing (SS), Great Sword (SS), Communication (SS), Composure (SS), Pressure (SS), Reign (SS), Oratoryart (SS)

-> Condition: Holy Sword, Demon Sword, Golem

Too much, of course, but the effect of Gifted Z -rank will be very useful in the future, so I was in no hurry to overcome the limit.

I developed my skills as much as I could.

If only not the "Infinity" skill, which did not allow for a deterioration in the ranks of skills, even with a Hero specialization, I could not do that.

In addition…

Even without activating the Black Box, I could summon the Holy Sword Nuclon, the Demon Sword and the staff of the Holy X.

The principle is simple.

I summoned them as a Demon Lord, and only then deactivated the Black Box, so their contract with me was only renewed.

– Your Imperial Majesty, your expression is too worried today.

– A little…

For the last 3 years I have always slept with a wet nurse.

To my body I don't need sleep, but from the age of 1, out of habit, hugging her, I fell asleep.

There were no special reasons for this.

As soon as I woke up, beautiful maids helped her, but the nurse bathed and dressed me.

– Is this due to the invasion of the Demon Lord?

– Aha-

The nurse read my thoughts well.

– And you can't do not go on a military campaign?

-… we must go.

My goal was to return to Earth. Since the slime toilets, the technology of the fantasy world has evolved every day, but it wasn't enough to fill the void in the shower.

Plus, this is only fantasy.

This mirage, created by the God of Fantasy, could disappear at any moment. I could not relax.

– Your Imperial Majesty…

– What?

– I like the Sword Princess better than the imperial princess we saw in the afternoon. Now all the inhabitants of the empire are loyal to you, but remember you in infancy. You remember? When the whole world ignored me running with you in my arms, only Hiplia and the Sword Princess helped us.

– I'll take note of this.

– Thank you.

After hearing the words of the wet nurse, I have made my decision.

Since this cannot be avoided, you must take a chance.

*****

For the first time in a long time, I enjoyed the springs at the foot of the Snow Mountain M. There was a little fuss about the fact that the emperor himself arrived, accompanied by knights, but since it was night in the courtyard, unnecessary attention was avoided.

After all, except for those who had a night shift, everyone was at home!

In my empire, laws on working hours were observed. Naturally, cursing, beating and ill-treatment were also prohibited.

And no sexual harassment.

– Your Imperial Majesty. Did you call me?

The Sword Princess came to the open-air springs in full outfit. If there were another emperor in front of her, he would tremble with fear.

– Don't stand there. Join me.

– B-but this is…

– Do you want to hit the three-year-old emperor?

– Not true! I will never dare!

– Then join me.

– W-well… Oh! As you say, Your Imperial Majesty…

Having taken off her armor and underwear, the Sword Princess, as if still doubting, slowly approached the source. Due to the mountain wind touching her snow-white skin, she trembled a little.

As soon as she enters the source, she will immediately warm up.

But the Sword Princess hesitated, covering her chest and lower body. When I was a child, she swam with me without any problems, can she really see a man in me now?

Finally, she went to the source. Although her shoulders were still shaking and she had a worried expression on her face.

– Relax.

– I'll try.

I thought if I asked her to undress and swim with me, she would exclaim "Pervert! I'll kill you!" and run away, but this did not happen. Although she had a flushed face.

If it's not because of the temperature of the water, then it's definitely because of shame.

Is she embarrassed by a three-year-old child?

Isn't this a serious psychological problem?

We even slept in the same bed after that.

When I was a newborn child, the nurse often left me to the Sword Princess. So there was no problem with that.

Although I naturally did nothing. But the strange habits of the Sword Princess during sleep… Okay, not the point.

Since then, every day I called the Sword Princess to the springs, and the next day we woke up together.

But one day she didn't come…

Because of my puberty.

Until that time, others in the palace watched my rapid development, so they were no longer surprised by this, but not the Sword Princess, with whom I bathed in the springs and slept every night.

– Your Imperial Majesty… Now it's somehow embarrassing…

– But I'm still only 3 years old.

Although according to my device you can't tell.

Now two modes are available to me: sleeping and combat.

Once, the Sword Princess thought that she could not do this while sober, so she came to the springs with a bunch of booze.

BULK

Bathing improves blood circulation.

Alcohol too.

****

I spread the fair wings of a Rank A Hero.

I can't say what turned out perfect, Nov did everything possible so that the empire could function without my presence.

Apart from the question regarding the successor, of course.

Although it may have been useless.

If the Demon Lord or Hero dies, what will become of this world? If he disappears, then all my efforts will be in vain.

Although if he remains, there will be problems too.

Educationally used locals the inhabitants of the fantasy world were just a copy, weren't they? They were no different from the artificial intelligence in VR games.

I know. Because I was in the body of a local.

– It's time to end this damn school.

But before that…

I flew to Elfheim, the elven kingdom of the central continent.

To deal with one lustful apprentice.
